Event:    Kars for Kids Public Service Announcement Filming
Date:
       12-Apr-2000
Location: Barton Creek Mall, Austin  Texas
Description: Kars 4 Kids is a local car show sponsored each year by the local Sonic Drive-In.  The proceeds from the sales of donated items and the auction benefit a local charity for disadvantaged children in the area.  As part of the show, a Public Service Announcement (PSA) session is conducted where a photo-shoot and motion picture shoot is performed of a sample of vehicles that will attend the event.  I chose to participate in the PSA driving the jeep from the house to a local mall where the shoot was held.

00k4k_1.JPG (27325 bytes) About 10 vehicles showed up for the PSA shoot.  Not being the auto-expert, I do know there were some old hot rods, Mustangs, a Model T, a pink Caddy and a Ford pickup with a jaguar running gear and drive train
00k4k_2.JPG (27893 bytes) They wanted a shot with the hoods up.  Note the shovel mounted under the hood.  This was the standard mounting place on this model only.  The M38 (MC) was still mounted on the side of the vehicle the same it was on the later M151 model.  You can also see the Technical Inspection date of "Dec-66"  This was the date under the hood when I purchased it indicating it was still in the service at that point.
